Something in the Water by Catherine Steadman

You find the love of your life, and you plan to spend the rest of your life with him.  You marry, and head off to a fabulous vacation in Bora Bora where you will spend time swimming, diving, and enjoying time together - just the two of you.  

The honeymoon is heavenly until Erin and Mark find something while on a dive.  They decide to move forward instead of walking away, and this decision changes their lives forever.  They can never go back to the way things were....before.  

Decisions must be made, and risks must be taken in order to live the new lives they have chosen for themselves.  But is it worth it in the long run?

I have to admit, I cringed sometimes when the characters in this book would make a hasty decision.  Jumping into a life altering decision isn't something that I often do, and there are many risk-taking decisions in this novel. It is also interesting to think about what I would do if I were put in the same circumstances as the book's characters.  Would I make some of the same choices?  

If you enjoy books that twist and turn, this is a book for you.  Once you feel like you have figured out the plot, another development occurs, and once again, we try to figure out the antagonist.
